daily driving will be about the same, but when you let it have it and let it slam, it will grab tighter.

Be sure to have the flywheel resurfaced, and give 'er 500 miles of gentle driving to break in, then give it hell. You'll love it! That's what I have

I don't know about the percents, but it does grab super tight, but is also very smooth.

Figure a solid weekend. Don't try to rush anything. Pullin the tranny will take at least 3 hours and putting in in the same... I'm talking on the garage floor with jack stands. You may be able to do it in less, may take you longer, depends. There are a lot of nuts/bolts that can and will get you stuck and you will definitely need plenty of extra hands to get the trans out... the more help the better here. Also, for sake of getting the tranny out from under the car, jack the car up as high as you possibly can get it.

Do pull the flywheel off, and do spend the $40 (that's what it was for me) to have it resurfaced. You will be very glad you did.

For the money you would be better off going with fidanza or spec.
